# Via PHP\_SESSION\_UPLOAD\_PROGRESS
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Basic Info
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you found a **Local File Inclusion** even if you **don't have a session** and `session.auto_start` is `Off`. If you provide the **`PHP_SESSION_UPLOAD_PROGRESS`** in **multipart POST** data, PHP will **enable the session for you**.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```bash
|
||
|
|
$ curl http://127.0.0.1/ -H 'Cookie: PHPSESSID=iamorange'
|
||
|
|
$ ls -a /var/lib/php/sessions/
|
||
|
|
. ..
|
||
|
|
$ curl http://127.0.0.1/ -H 'Cookie: PHPSESSID=iamorange' -d 'PHP_SESSION_UPLOAD_PROGRESS=blahblahblah'
|
||
|
|
$ ls -a /var/lib/php/sessions/
|
||
|
|
. ..
|
||
|
|
$ curl http://127.0.0.1/ -H 'Cookie: PHPSESSID=iamorange' -F 'PHP_SESSION_UPLOAD_PROGRESS=blahblahblah' -F 'file=@/etc/passwd'
|
||
|
|
$ ls -a /var/lib/php/sessions/
|
||
|
|
. .. sess_iamorange
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In the last example the session will contain the string blahblahblah
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Note that with **`PHP_SESSION_UPLOAD_PROGRESS`** you can **control data inside the session**, so if you includes your session file you can include a part you control (a php shellcode for example).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
{% hint style="info" %}
|
||
|
|
Although most tutorials on the Internet recommends you to set `session.upload_progress.cleanup` to `Off` for debugging purpose. The default `session.upload_progress.cleanup` in PHP is still `On`. It means your upload progress in the session will be cleaned as soon as possible. So this will be **Race Condition**.
|
||
|
|
{% endhint %}
|
||
|
|

### The CTF
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In the [**original CTF**](https://blog.orange.tw/2018/10/) where this technique is commented, it wasn't enough to exploit the Race Condition but the content loaded needed to start also with the string `@<?php`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Due to the default setting of `session.upload_progress.prefix`, our **SESSION file will start with a annoying prefix** `upload_progress_` Such as: `upload_progress_controlledcontentbyattacker`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The trick to **remove the initial prefix** was to **base64encode the payload 3 times** and then decode it via `convert.base64-decode` filters, this is because when **base64 decoding PHP will remove the weird characters**, so after 3 times **only** the **payload** **sent** by the attacker will **remain** (and then the attacker can control the initial part).
